"Easy Lover" is a song by English singer Ellie Goulding featuring American rapper Big Sean, released on 15 July 2022 through Polydor Records as the lead single from her fifth studio album Higher Than Heaven.

In January 2022, Goulding hinted at releasing new music in an Instagram post and expressed concerns about having to manage her mental wellbeing.

[6] Regarding the collaboration process with Big Sean on the record, she added: "We’ve stayed in touch for years because he sampled me a couple of times, I always feel like there’s something pretty special in someone who appreciates me that early on as an artist, so I’ve stayed in touch with everyone from that era, in particular him because I think’s he’s consistently been a brilliant artist.

[8] In an interview with Rolling Stone UK, Goulding stated: "I was really nervous that the video would just end up being a representation of the song.

Alex Gonzalez from Uproxx praised Sean's verse, describing it as "clever wordplay",[9] and Mike DeWald from RIFF Magazine enthused about an "anthemic feeling" in the song.
